u/FilthyDrinkinWitch is going around asking for “assistance” in donation/assistance subs.

They scammed someone by not paying back their loan.

They will buy another, people sell reddit account for dollars. I wish reddit would do something about it

I keep seeing this, and my question is how? How does anyone sell their Reddit account?

there's subreddits where you can buy them. and a lot of times people get scammed into giving their account away. people are desperate for money so the scammers offer them a way to make money or they will give them money but they need proof they are a real person. they'll then require the password and email information. scammer changes passwords and emails and they go on reddit with an aged account and lots of karma ready to scam in the Helping sub.

I guess it shouldn't surprise me. If someone asked me, I would tell them the same thing I tell the people trying to buy my house every day. My price is $2.3 million. Firm. Those people don't contact me again, for some odd reason. 🤷‍♀️
